You’ve Been Through This Before
You drop your dog off and pick up an anxious animal who flinched the whole way in. The cut is wrong. Nobody asked you anything. You got a different person this time, or a teenager who just started and shaved them down to the skin because it was faster.
Your dog comes home panting. Shaking. Sometimes hurt. Nobody mentioned it at pickup.
In Wisconsin, anyone can buy clippers and call themselves a groomer. No license. No training requirement.
You have no way to know who’s touching your dog unless you already know them.
That’s not a small thing. That’s the dog you love.
Formal Training. 31 Years. And She Actually Takes Notes.
Graduate of the Wisconsin School of Professional Pet Grooming. Grooming dogs in the Fox Valley since 1995.
One groomer, every appointment
Jeannine is the only groomer at Double J Dog Grooming. Your dog always gets her. Not a rotation. Not a trainee. The same hands, the same attention, every visit.
Your cut, your way
Before every groom, Jeannine asks how you want the cut. She writes it down and adjusts based on your feedback each visit. Multiple customers said no groomer had ever asked them that before.
She sees what others groomers don’t
Jeannine’s training helps her spot what other groomers miss. She’s caught melanoma, kidney disease, thyroid problems, epilepsy, and ear infections early enough to matter.
A calm, quiet shop
Double J is home-based. Solid-grate kennels, large windows, a fenced yard. Warm, gentle drying for anxious dogs. No chain-store noise. No assembly line. Many dogs fall asleep during the drying.
All-day stays. No extra charge
Jeannine calls you when your dog is ready. Pick up then or any time before 5:30pm. Water and bathroom breaks throughout. No extra charge either way.
Jeannine saw a small dark growth on Bambi’s back during a grooming session that I hadn’t noticed. A quick trip to the vet the next day indicated a non-malignant melanoma that would surely have become malignant if left untreated, and I could have lost my little dog.
Hi, I’m Jeannine.
I graduated from the Wisconsin School of Professional Pet Grooming in 1995 and started my career with a mobile grooming service before opening Double J Dog Grooming in Appleton, WI. My husband Todd joined the business when he retired in 2015. He handles bathing and drying, and the dogs took to him immediately.
Double J is a home-based dog grooming shop by design. Quiet, calm, and nothing like a chain.
Some of my customers have been coming for over 30 years. They followed me from the mobile days and never left.
Most of my new customers come from referrals. When you find a groomer who actually pays attention, you don’t switch.
Full-Service Dog Grooming. Nothing Rushed.
No assembly line, no rushed hand-offs. Just one experienced groomer who pays attention from start to finish.
Bathing and Drying
Every dog gets a thorough bath with premium shampoos and conditioners matched to their coat. Options available for itchy, flaky, or allergy-prone skin. Every dog is fully dried before leaving. Jeannine uses hand drying or warm cage airflow, depending on what each dog is comfortable with.
Brushing
Included with every groom. Mats are brushed out when possible. If a mat is too close to the skin, Jeannine clips it short, removes it comfortably, and explains what happened. She’ll also show you which brush to use at home and how to keep the coat in good shape between appointments.
Haircuts and Clipping
Breed-standard cuts or custom styles. Jeannine asks what you want, makes suggestions if you want them, and documents the cut so she can repeat or refine it next time. Graduate of the Wisconsin School of Professional Pet Grooming.
Nail Trimming
Included in every full groom. Nails are trimmed to a comfortable length so they don’t snag or affect how your dog walks. Grinding available on request.
Ear Cleaning
Included in every full groom. If Jeannine notices excess wax, redness, or anything that warrants a vet visit, she’ll tell you.
Anal Gland Care
Included when needed. If your dog is scooting or showing signs of discomfort, Jeannine addresses it as part of the groom.
What Appleton Dog Owners Say After 30+ Years
Over 100 5-Star Google Reviews
A friend recommended Double J when we brought home our cavapoo, Ginny, five years ago. Ginny can be skittish around other dogs and people, but she walks right into Double J. Todd and Jeannine are kind and take excellent care of our sweet dog. I appreciate the easy scheduling and knowing that she will be well cared for while she’s there!
We have been bringing our Aussie here for the last 5 years. She has gone to a few different groomers but was never successful with others. Todd and Jeannine have been so amazing to our girl and she doesn’t mind going, which is huge for her! We love it here and would recommend to everyone!
I brought my Miniature American Shepherd, Abigail, for a long overdue grooming. She had so many knots and tangles! They did a wonderful job with her! She was so soft and lovely. And even with all the work that I’m sure it was, the price was very fair. Especially when compared with other locations across the Fox Valley.
What People Ask Before They Call
Will my dog always get Jeannine?
Yes. Jeannine is the only groomer at Double J Dog Grooming. Your dog will never be handed off to someone you’ve never met.
Do you use cage dryers?
Yes. Jeannine uses both hand drying and warm cage drying, whichever works best for your dog. The cage dryers are warm and quiet, not loud and forceful. Many dogs fall asleep.
My dog is anxious at other salons. Will this be different?
It usually is. Double J Dog Grooming is a home-based shop. No lobby full of barking dogs, no chain-store chaos. Dogs that were terrified at their last groomer often settle in quickly here. If your dog has specific needs, mention it when you call.

Tell Jeannine exactly what you want. She’ll ask questions, write it down, and repeat it next time, adjusting based on your feedback each visit. That’s how it works at every appointment.
